Abstract

The problem of intensive care of the patients with craniocerebral injury concomitant to trauma of skeletal bones remains actual due to high rate of lethality of patients with this pathology. The aim of this study is to demonstrate how intensive therapy of compensated gastrointestinal dysfunction in patients with craniocerebral injury combined with trauma of skeletal bones impacts the results of the treatment. There were formed two groups of patients with the same pathology and its severity. Both groups received identical treatment, but the patients of the second group received early enteral nutrition as well. The results of the study demonstrate lower lethality and faster reduction of pathology severity, decreasing of manifestation of multiple insufficiency and gastrointestinal dysfunction in the patients received early enteral nutrition. So, the results of the study show that early enteral nutrition positively impacts the condition of patients with craniocerebral injury combined with trauma of skeletal bones with compensated syndrome of gastrointestinal dysfunction and allows reduce lethality rate and complications occurrence as well as decrease treatment terms.
